What Causes Red, Flaky And Dry Skin On Penis Head?

My penis head is red, dry, and has white falkes on it. I only see the flakes when I pull my foreskin back I don t know what it is and I looked up my symptoms and smegma popped up so when I took a shower I pulled my skin back and washed my head with just water no soap I just checked right now and its worse and it has a little itch to it, it has been two days since noticed it, I found out while masturbating

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,
It seems that there might be having prosthatitis due to stuck of smegma not cleaned up since long time.
Apply antibiotic cream after proper cleaning by averting foreskin.
Now on wards make a habit of cleaning local part while taking shower.
Ok and take care.
